2 bounds is to define lines that are bad for one side.

Humans do not define it by numbers but they define better and worse.
The tree that humans search is certainly similiar to the tree that programs
search except the fact that humans search smaller tree and have rules when to
prune but selective search does not mean not using alphabeta.
